Paul,

My SeaRey will have an  EXPERIMENTAL sticker pasted on it and nobody cares. To have a rotary solution in my '69 Cherokee is worth pasting one on and again who
cares. The marketplace needs molecular rotary power (micro machines)to fix illnesses [the micromachine developments are not progressing on the model of a V8,
etc.but the rotary] CERTIFICATION is a matter of evolution as the REVOLUTION gets the statistics to support it.

I applaud everyone involved for pushing the rotary to their chosen limits.  What about the rest of the limits? Paul we are looking to you for  leadership in
rotary direction beyond my imagination. I do not have the knowledge to do this alone. From what I have learned so far here, the concept of no does not float
with me when it comes to rotary. Racing plays a key role in bring real products to the marketplace... this is no exception.

Thank You

I am doing what can. As far as the long term health is concerned a turbo compound 
auto engine version is pivotal IMHO. The coming electric assisted turbo charged
RX8 may be a small step in that direction. With a larger electric motor/generator
it could be a component in a hybrid. I notice GM is doing away with the starter
and using a modified alternator/motor instead in one or more vehicles starting in
2006. Engine will shutoff at stop lights and restart when the light turns green.
That will work for the rotary as well. Unfortunately hydrogen is way off in
the future but the rotary should then dominate.
